not sure what web interface you installed but are you aware of the fact that 
revision 478 is more than 2 years old ? Your current problem seems unrelated 
to batman but if you experience trouble / bugs with batman it might be wise to 
upgrade to the latest stable release.

You bridged the LAN & WLAN on every device but the devices are not bridged 
with each other, hence you mix bridges & routing. 

What IP address did you assign to your PC ? Does your PC have a route towards 
the .1 (probably not) ? You also have make sure that all nodes have a route 
towards your PC. You can achieve that using HNA. See:
